'science'

In Other Languages: Arabic (old) - Chinese - Deutsch - French - Greek - Hebrew - Japanese - Italian - Latin - Portuguese - Russian - Spanish - Swedish - Swiss -

Synonyms:

• systematized knowledge
• physical knowledge
• assessment of propositions which are 'true'
• etc.

Etymology:

"Science n. About 1340 science knowledge, branch of learning, skill; borrowed from Old French science, from Latin scientia knowledge, from sciens (genitive scientis), present participle of scire to know; for suffix see -ENCE. A branch of learning based on observation and tested truths, arranged in an orderly system, is first recorded in English in 1725, developed from the sense of a particular branch of knowledge (logic, grammar, rhetoric, music, arithmetic, geometry, astronomy) as distinguished from art (1678), and related to the sense of a recognized branch of learning (before 1376)."

Classical science seeks to know what is true. That which is classically 'true' is physically, concretely, immutably, paradigmatically veritable, verifiable, and valid — provisionally — until its verity is verifiably contradicted.

Classical philosophy seeks to know what is truth. Clearly, 'truth' is a metanotion of 'true,' in a similar sense as Gödel's 'provability' is a metanotion of 'proof.'

Re: quantum and philosophy, we adore how Jim Baggott says it, "It is my opinion, expressed in this book, that quantum theory is philosophy." And, "Beneath the [quantum mechanical] formalism must be an interpretation and the interpretation is pure philosophy." Preface, p. x - The Meaning of Quantum Theory.

In our view, in Quantonics, any study of quantum reality is metaphysics, even better metaphysi.

Darwin was afraid of publishing his own theory of natural selection since it evokes inferences of heterodoxy, choice (heresy), and pluralism. Of course all three violate fundamentalist religious convictions. But Darwin's theory of evolution is very quantum!

Fundamentalist natural selection requires an a posteriori view of reality, and that view must be unitary-historical. Fundamentalists insist that there is only one valid history of reality, only one valid past. (See Clifford Geertz' assessments of SOM's "Absolutism removes judgment from history," and CR's "Relativism disables judgment." Browser search for <judg> at that Geertz link.)

How can they believe that? Simple. Classical science says there is only one time, the time.

Interestingly, though, even if we assume only a single 'time' we can easily demonstrate unlimited histories and unlimited pasts.

Classical conspectives of selection as monistic (non heterogeneous) thus demand that any use of probability to predict any future event must depend upon a single thread ensemble of sequential historical events. Classicists do not view past, now, and future as heterogeneous ensembles.

Darwin's natural selection put all of this classical bogosity into major question, and we are still feeling and reeling from consequences of it. Quantum scihænce is one of these consequences, in our view, toward better.

However, classically, Darwin's natural selection yet suffers some major issues. We doubt that Darwin saw adaptation as an ensemble result of b¤th species', their genes', and nature's choices amd selections. Most descriptions we have read of Darwin's natural selection shows nature as choosing outcomes, vis-à-vis b¤th nature amd ahll quantum~ihndihvihduals ch¤¤sing~selecting t¤gether. If so, with nature viewed objectively separate from genes and species, then this is a classical and anti quantum view of Darwin's natural selection. We can perhaps best illustrate what we mean here with words of Lourens Bass-Becking, "Everything is everywhere; the environment selects." In Quantonics we would alter Becking's assumption thus, "Eværythingings aræings æværywhereings; they ahllings aræ ihn quantum~selecti¤nings pr¤cæssings."

We interpret classical views of Darwin's natural selection as nature doing all selection and species having little to do but obey nature's classically predicable commands. This is nature as hegemonist, which we decry vociferously.

Classically, selection is one past, certainly determining at one now, one future. Doug - 20Sep2005.

Classical selection is determinate, causal-effective, effectational, effectoring, dialectic, etc.

Quantum selection is uncertain, ensemble-affective, affectational, affectoring, holographic, etc. See our QELR of holograph.

Quantum~selection intrinsically involves dynamic hermeneutics hovering countless quantum~comtexts and their relentless choosings, chancings and changings. David A. Granger, interpreting Pirsig and Dewey describes what we mean here rather well in his October, 2006 MacMillan-Palgrave-published Dewey, Pirsig and the Art of Living, p. 74:

Quantumly, selectionings are many pasts, many nowings, and many potential futurings quantum~radically~stochastically and quantum~fractally and quantum~uncertainly selectings better nowings with expectations of better potential futurings: Doug - 20,24Sep2005.

As you may readily assess, there is much to ponder here. We shall evolve this living text, persistently.

Adepts will notice Mae-wan Ho here. All quantum pings, b(n)ings, and fings (pastings, nowings~beings, futurings) are locally autonomous (issues of quantum~partiality here) while systemically quantum~coherent. Pings, bings, and fings are massively heterogeneous! Pings, bings, and fings are massively quantum~sorso and thus fractal. Quantum reality shows us he~r massive, scaling quantum~temporal uncertainties! (Authors, painters, pianists, violinists, marksmen, tennisers, runners, et al., all are personally k~nowings how that graphic feels qualitatively when they cohere with their instruments and sports and simultaneously cohere with reality and "everything just happens well.") Petzinger (The New Pioneers) calls it "Becoming one with one's tools."

Classical assess: stability independence excluded-middle EOOOness H5Wness lisrability causation certainty EEMDivity observation : Simplicity

Classical simplicity is analytic. Culturally it is often referred as "objective simplicity" and "state-social simplicity (often taking cultural forms as nationalism, fascism, socialism, communism, etc.)." Actually it is "locally naïve realism," "'unambiguous' classical judgmentism," and "naïve logical positivism" simplicity.

Scientifically and philosophically, again, simplicity is analytic. It assumes OGC. It assumes stoppable classical state, stateism, status and staticity. What we in Quantonics refer as "stux sux, stux is classical crux," and "abysses of staysses."

Ockham's razor is a blatant and blundering blunted SOM's knife example of CTMs which adhere 'simple objective thing-king.' To Ockham (Henry of), simplicity is just another classical 'rule,' (akin 'common sense,' and 'generality') to which we respond not altogether humourously,

Classical stasis-simplicity induces inexplicable phenomena, paradice, infinities and zeroes. Classical simplicity obfuscates reality.

An example here of classical simplicity is a classical notion of 'absolute truth.'

Recently Mitch offered an example of this kind of classically simple thingking.

A SOMite said to Mitch, "There is fighting in the world and that is an absolute truth." This is a fine example of what dialectic does to classical minds.

Mitch needed to respond to his antagonist that if that statement is an "absolute truth," then classically, simply, its 'opposite' must be an absolute truth too!

Clarifying aside - 7Oct2005 - Doug:

If, classically, dialectically,

• "there is fighting in the world" is absolutely true, then
• "there is 'no' fighting in the world" absolutely false must be absolutely true too.

Even classically, however, there are places and times in our world where there is fighting and there are places and times in our world when there is no fighting!

End aside.

Dialectic claims EOOO is an absolutely state-ic classical tautology. Implication? Either there is fighting in the world or there is not fighting in the world. But by simple dynamic observation we can easily fathom that:

1. "there is fighting in the world" is true, and
2. "there is no fighting in the world" is true, and there may be times when
3. "we do not know whether there is fighting in the world," is true.

Let's use some quantonic script to wrap this up:

Said dichon is simply, classically, statically, dialectically wrong when either statement is claimed as absolute truth!

Saihd quanton issi sihmply, quantumly, dynamihcahlly, rhet¤rihcahlly c¤rrect whæn claimæd as a comtextuahlly umcærtain truth!

How can we more easily understand this? Dialectical classicists assume negation is objective. Wr¤ng!

Quantum reality shows us that negation is subjective. Rihght!

Our uses of wr¤ng and rihght are quantum English language remediated (QELRed). Why? Same reasoning we used above:

Quantumly, in a plethora of quantum comtexts wr¤ng is rihght, and in a plethora of other quantum comtexts rihght is wr¤ng, and in a plethora of other quantum comtexts "Mu!" This shows how quantum reality is quantum uncertain.

Classically, there is only one local, naïve context. See OGC in OGT. This is classicism's only means of maintaining classical certainty.

Simply, whatever any classicist is statically certain about, we can show is quantumly, dynamically uncertain. To use dialectic to claim absolute classical certainty is, to put it mildly, unintelligent. To put it less mildly, "DIQheaded." J

Static simplicity says that dialectical, formal truth is both immutable and absolute where absolute truth is both:

• complete, and (i.e., 'states all truths')
• consistent. (i.e., 'always states the truth')

Classicists use that 'absoluteness' to declare unambiguity of their work products, communications, logic, etc. That view may, on its face, appear quite classically simple, however, it is wrong.

Kurt Gödel's Incompleteness Theorems (there are two; one for completeness and a second for consistency) show us unambiguously that dialectical, formal truth absoluteness, completeness, and consistency are classical delusions. Henri Louis Bergson says it metaphorically something like this, Classicists suffer "a delusion that reality is stable and objects in reality are independent." Paul A. M. Dirac says it like this, "Causality [unambiguous 'foreseeable 'effects''] applies only to a system which is left undisturbed [i.e., a 'simple, inert, static system']." We have to posit immutability and 'positive' social consensus to render dogmatic said 'static simplicity.'

• temporal measurement
  • ability to measure time unambiguously

Classical assess: stability independence excluded-middle EOOOness H5Wness lisrability causation certainty EEMDivity observation : Simultaneity, simultaneous, simultaneously, etc. Classicists tend to view simultaneity in at least these notional categories: parallel agency, equality of temporal events, arbitrary precision of temporal measurement, social contemporary common sense group thought, and isochrony.

Let's look at those alphabetically ordered and examine classical assumptions, presumptions, and normatives surrounding each:

• common group thingk
  
  Classical socialists believe that social groups can share 'common sense' normatively together, isochronously, in general. Some examples here are any scientific paradigm, any religious paradigm, any cultural paradigm, etc. Simultaneous group think is usually enforced by 'laws,' 'disciplinary matrices,' 'constitutions,' 'commandments,' etc.
  
  
• isochrony
  
  Classicists are trained and educated to believe that they can (are capable of) assessing identity of any two and any N time measurements, taken against a common standard global time reference, as identical, in general.
  
  
• parallel agency (especially public, exoteric, exegetic, social agency)
  
  Classicists are trained and educated to believe that they can achieve (are capable of) dialectical agreement, concord, accord, and harmony, in general.
  
  In Quantonics, we call this a "tragedy of commons sense." It is group-thingk. It is herd and hive thing-king.
  
  
• temporal equality
  
  Classicists believe that mechanical isochrony of any pair of timed events can be measured to arbitrary precision, in general. Ditto 'arbitrary accuracy.'
  
  Students of Quantonics must learn to omnistinguish what classicists mean by genericity and specificity vis-à-vis what we in Quantonics infer and hermeneuticize as quantum genærihcihty amd quantum spæcihfihcihty. See specific.
  
  
• temporal measurement
  
  Classicists are trained and educated to believe that they can be (are capable of) measuring time and timed events to arbitrary precision and accuracy, against an absolute standard reference, in general.
  
  Classicists intuit that measurement can be a zero latency event itself. To any classicist no objective measurement should require duration to be a viable measurement. Indeed, to any classicist, durational measurement is non objective: "subjective," and thus "absurd." Ideal classical measurement requires Aristotelian t₀ = t₀ simultaneity! It requires ideal Aristotelian zero latency eventism. It requires a non durational hold and sample, locally naïve Aristotelian, Newtonian, Einsteinian 'reality.' A great recent example of application of this invalid classical notion appears in a AAAS Science, VOL 307 25Feb2005, Report titled 'Simultaneous State Measurement of Coupled Josephson Phase Qubits.' That title tells an enormous story all by itself. Today's scientists see measurement, not as quantum process, rather as zero latency classical event. They are doing quantum work using classical notions and paradigms and disciplinary matrices. Ugh! Doug.
  
  But quantum reality shows us all that is classical hocus bogus...classical simultaneity does n¤t quantumly exist!

As students of Quantonics we view reality as absolute flux.

We have to wait a little while, to watch an oscillation or two, at the least. Thus if energy is akin to frequency, we may not measure energy in an instant but must spend a little time in doing so."

Classical assess: stability independence excluded-middle EOOOness H5Wness lisrability causation certainty EEMDivity observation : Solve, solution, etc.

Classicists believe that when a problem is 'solved' it is 'solved' forever.

Original etymology of 'solve' does not carry this later mathematical tenor. Originally 'solve' meant to 'dissolve' in a liquid, to loosen a whole into its solubilities... Mathematics in its Platonic idealities viewed 'form' as 'final' and formal solutions as 'solved.' Merely classical dialectical B.S.! Some call it 'Enlightenment,' but now we, some of us at least, are beginning to grasp it as endarkenment. Doug - 8Dec2007.

Doug recognized here that an easy 'test' for you, as students of Quantonics, to use is to ask whether 'some word' is intended as 'state'-ic. If it is then it is probably bogus dialectic. Then ask whether some word is intended as process. If it is then it is probably quasi quantum rhetoric. That test works here: solve as 'state' is bogus. Solve as process (especially pr¤cæss) is quantum. Easy, eh? Doug - 8Dec2007.

To classicists, especially in their Platonic mindress, nature is naught but ideal state-ic forms which all humans need do is 'discover.' Intention? Nature is a formal puzzle which humans must seek to 'solve' once and for all. Of course that is just bogus, since as we have shown quite fruitfully here in Quantonics: dialectic is bogus, so all formal thought based upon it is bogus. Ideal solutions simply do not 'exist.' Plato fuxed up.

Quantum assess: animacy c¤mplementarity included-middlings BAWAMings H5Wings lisrings affectati¤nings umcærtainty EIMAivityings c¤¤bsfection : S¤lve, s¤luti¤n, etc.

Quantum reality evolves. Quantum reality is unending pr¤cæssings of emerqancies and transemerqancies of n¤væl quantons. How? Quantum reality is abs¤lutæ flux whose spectrum spreads from almost imperceptibly slow changings up to Planck's frequency and even phasæ~ænc¤dings of that.

In quantum~reality all s¤luti¤ns, all solubilities are ongoing pr¤cæssæs. N¤ s¤luti¤n can hold still and n¤ s¤luti¤n can ævær be final. (Our last sentence is what ethical 'science' means when it refers self "always provisional.")

Quantum~partiality is a great way to describe what we mean by "s¤luti¤ns are nævær 'done'." All reality issi quantum~æv¤luti¤nary~pr¤cæssings. Æv¤luti¤n issi nævær 'done.' Æv¤luti¤n issi always partial, quantum~partial.

Like house cleaning s¤luti¤ns are nævær 'done.'

Like PhD's. there are n¤ Laurels.

Like CVs they always grow.

Like learning there is n¤ end. We all are always students, n¤ levels above studentings. Most 'teachers and professors' forget that. They have arrived. Tenure is their final Laurel-resting 'solution.' Then they are 'done.' Their personal 'social education' is 'done.' Society wants them elevated above individuals, however, they never are, are they?

Like living~dying~resurrecting~rebirthing, etc., we cann¤t 'stop' our endless anabolic~catabolic~anabolic~catabolic quantum~flux cycles...

Now apply what we just wrote to 'facts.' Do facts 'exist?' N¤! Why? Facts are based upon 'final' 'solutions,' fixed-stable 'answers' to theoretical questions. N¤ 'answer' is 'or' can be 'fixed.' There are n¤ stable monisms! There are n¤ stable pluralisms! There are n¤ Platonic 'facts' which 'exist!'

N¤ solution can be fixed, finished, and done since all s¤luti¤ns are quantum~pr¤cæssæs.

Now, in Pirsig's world, in MoQ, are classical 'solutions' Value? N¤! Why? Value is Dynamic: quanton(DQ,SQ). Classical solutions are ideal ESQ: dichon(SQ, SQ) with SOM's wall firmly instantiated to prevent any changes muxing and fuxing with ideal Platonic formal 'solutions.'

Value is quantum~flux. Value issi n¤t final, formal, ideal classical 'state.' Solutions and facts are ideally state-ic! Vulgi opinio Error!

HotMeme™ "Solutions are never 'done!' Therefore, there are n¤ 'facts'!" HotMeme™. Evolution issi quantum~real!

Similarly, HotMeme™ "Inquiries are never 'done!' Therefore, there are n¤ 'final data sets'!" HotMeme™.

Solutions, inquiries, facts, and data are always partial, quantum~partial. Why? They are all relentless and unstoppable quantum~flux~pr¤cæss emerqancies of quantum~flux. It is dialectical illusion and self-delusion to adhere classical notions of stoppable 'state.' All issi æv¤luti¤n borne of abs¤lutæ flux. Naught is, naught can be state. ESQ 'exists' n¤t.

• Religiously: "the devil," (Çatholiçs use this one a lot. Actually, if you do your homework, you will find that they represent the antichrist, since Jesus was/is a quantum~gn¤stic sophist!) Doug - 9Dec2008.)
• Etc.

Classicists view all people who speak using rhetorical sophisms "unstable," at best and "morons" at worst.

Pirsig teaches us that Parmenides, Plato, and Aristotle used sophists as strawmen against whom they could direct their version of 'truth's' sophist antivenin. Socrates was committed to death by hemlock for his mentoring of sophism to his younger students.

Classically, a sophism is any 'kind...' duh, er, ummm '...category' of thinking which makes finding 'truth' difficult.

"Hey Doug, how can we detect these untruthful categories?" Actually it is quite easy to do. Doug has been attempting that by example in several omniffering pages in Quantonics' web site.

A great way to omniscover sophist phasements is to look for self (and contextually tight-close self-other) references in one sentence or in close-context sets of sentences. An example of a single sentence is "This sentence is false." It is a verbal example of a stairs illusion. It is a verbal Escherian!

An example of two sentences is:

1. Sentence two is false.
2. Sentence one is true.

What makes that combination sophist is most classicists attempt to make both 'state' ments fit a single context. When one does that, one's mind goes into this infinite 'vicious' loop which has been known to drive some folks into da loony bin.

It is easy to solve that kind of sophism simply by treating each sentence as a separate context. See Doug's now old Many Truths to You. Zeno's first paradox (sophism) is also a great example of what we are showing you here.

A third example is 'male' sexuality. Male chromosomes are actually both female (X) and male (Y), so a male is actually a sophism(female,male) in one human body. "Hey guys, now you can explain all those feminine feelings you are always attempting to hide." J

There are enormous varieties of 'kinds' of sophisms. Here is a list which will cover most of them in quantonics:

• Review Hughes' John Buridan on Self Reference
• What are Sophisms?
• A Student Asks What are Sophisms?
• Pesky Oxymora
• Sophism Connection
• Fractal Connection
• SOM Connection
• Quantum Connection
• etc.

John Buridan, based upon his Aristotelian education, found all sophism false! Quantumly, that is an unfortunate assessment since all in quantum~reality issi a sophism. "Doug, What!!!?" Yes, classically, partial logic is false, regardless H5W said logic becomes ¤r is partial, it is false by dialectical canonic dictates. However, and demonstrably, all of nature is enthymemetic, i.e., all of nature is partial works in progress. We colloquially refer it as "evolution." Buridan would have likely claimed any nature that evolves, "False." N¤ne of us is a 'finished' piece. Classical perfection may never be achieved, it is relentlessly, always only partially, 'done.' All of us are works in progress. All critters, humans, planets, stars, galaxies, etc., all are enthymemetic: sophist! Believe iht! Stable 'truth,' absolutely stable truth as Buridan sought as his ideal, then, is impossible in any quantum~reality. Doug - 9Dec2007.

Parmenidean, Platonic, Aristotelian 'truth' denies sophisms and claims all of them are false. Why? All three 'great thingkers' believed that truth is dialectical: either-or with an excluded-middle, substantial, material, factual, verifiable, provable, sustainable, objective, etc.

Sophism shows that a greater reality exists, a greater reality than naïve dialectic truth. Sophisms break Parmenides', Plato's, and Aristotle's sillygistic dialectisms.

Recall Pirsig's map experience in Lila?

If you omniscover 2+2=5, don't jump to a conclusion that it is just 'wrong,' 'false,' etc. Look for another con(m)text which adds one. J

Quantum reality is a sophist reality. It is fractal, self~referent, a vastly plural holographic network of animate self~other EIMA interrelationshipings, bettershipings. All flux is self~ and ~other~referent. We call it self~other~phase~encoding...and its absence. Quantum reality is partial~presence~absence of phase~encodings of quantum flux.

To a classical mind, all quantum miracles are "sophisms!"

PS - N¤t to go religious on you, rather to express a spiritual realism: Essene, Tribe of Judah, House of David (Dahveed) Gn¤stic Jesus (Light, logos) routinely spoke in quantum~sophisms. That's why Roman protoçatholiç inquisitors, et al., simply could n¤t grasp his elect, pneumatic quantum~lingo. That's why they killed him! That's why dialecticians today, pseudo-Christians and others, still HATE him! Believe it — else become extinct! Essene Gn¤stic Jesus was perhaps Earth's greatest quantum~sophist! In a way his profound gn¤sticism made him Earth's first quantum~scientist, quantum~philosopher! If Magdalene is Sophia, then Essene Gn¤stic Jesus literally Philo (loved) Sophia (Magdalene)! Çatholiç derivative patriarchal and misogynous 'christians' today, c. 2008, hate, despise, denounce all philogynous gn¤stics and gn¤sticism. Çatholiç derivative patriarchal and misogynous 'christians' are anti-scientists, anti-Christs of first magnitude! Doug. These are Doug's opinions based upon his personal pneumatic Chautauquas via Baigent, Leigh, and Lincoln's Holy Blood - Holy Grail, Elaine Pagels' vast opus on gnosis, Kathleen McGowen via her The Unexpected One, Dan Brown's efforts in his Angels & Demons and his The Da Vinci Code, Barnestone & Meyer's Gnostic Bible, Stephen A. Hoeller's opus on gnosis, G. R. S. Mead's gnostic opus, etc., etc., etc. See our Classical vav Quantum~Gnostic Recommended Reading. All of this, folks, finds its Essene~ce in sophism as rudimentary think_q~king!

Quantonics ch¤¤ses t¤ c¤¤pt classical 'state' amd remerq all quantum comtextual ¤ccurrences with 'stindyan.'

In classical contexts we shall use 'state.' In quantum comtexts we shall use 'stindyan,' 'stindyanic,' 'phase,' 'phasic,' and phasemental.

In quantum reality there is n¤ classical 'state.' Quantum reality is anihmatæ. All quantons are b¤th-all/amd dynamis/stasis. We sh¤w this as quanton(dynamis,stasis). Quantum stindyan is emerqant vis-à-vis classical stasis is objectively inanimate (assumes zero macro/meso/micro momenta).

Analytic classical reality assumes it can 'stop' reality for convenience of observation and measurement. That assumption is a SOM delusion. It arose from Aristotelianesque CTMs, as depicted by Thomas Kuhn in his SoSR, "Contemplating a falling stone, Aristotle saw a change of state rather than a process." p. 124 of 212 total, UCP paper bound 3^rd ed., 1996. (Our bold color. See our review of SoSR.)

We want to offer some good examples of classicists' 'use' of 'state.' P. A. M. Dirac is one of 'the' preeminent quantum theoreticians, and in a real sense 'the' Father of theoretical QED. Allow us to offer two Dirac comments regarding 'state' as it attends system analysis.

"Thus a state of an atomic system must be specified by fewer or more indefinite data than a complete set of numerical values for all the coordinates and velocities at some instant of time." Page 11, The Principles of Quantum Mechanics, by PAM Dirac, 4^th ed., OUP, 1958. Our bold and violet classical problematics.

Dirac clearly complains here that classical 'state' is complex, too complex to measure, adequately!

Probably Dirac complained since any classical 'object,' including ideally 'independent' classical 'points' themselves, composes an uncountable infinity of classical Newtonian 'spaceless' yet spatially unambiguous 'points,' in aggregate, induce-viewed as a massive 'homogeneous' classical 'point object' requiring extended space.

Voilá! We have a Diracian classically state-ic 'infinite complexity.'

We agree, and this is why we say, "Classical state is complex (rather, in-credible, even ludicrous) and quantum flux issi simple!" State's stux sux! Flux' crux issi simple!

You may find it additionally interesting that ideal classical 'state' actually and quite paradoxically denies classical metanotions of observability and measurability. Think about it... Observation and measurement (monitorings) require flux to assess relative change! Absent change, we can measure naught!

'State' is absolute classical naïveté. It is naïve, stoppable, frame-reference-able realism. It is naïve, stoppable frame-reference-able localism.

See our Quantum Pendulum. Read there about impossibility of 'classical static reference frames,' i.e., quantum reality issi absolute flux, semper fluxio.

We complain elsewhere that Dirac denigrates philosophy as a starting point for any good science. We see here, that classical parochialism has cost him dearly. He clearly tells us that he assumes reality is stoppable, and lisrable. I.e., reality is classical, not quantum! Time may be stopped for classical analytic convenience at any instant. He tells us that stopped numerical values for coordinates, time, space, and thus velocities are stoppable scalar magnitudes.

It is odd that Dirac continued to adhere these classical notions. If you read our reference for these quotes you will find that Dirac completely re-wrote his chapter on QED. In that re-write Dirac's own analysis acknowledges that genuine QED depends upon a view of reality which portrays reality as both absolutely-nonstationary and nonexclusive. His classical assumptions used earlier in writing other chapters in that text deny his later more quantum stindyanic/included-middle portrayals. Strangely, he retained his earlier classicism and concluded that such a more quantum reality is "impossible." So as a classicist, he found any nonclassical portrayal of quantum reality "impossible." Today, we see similar waffling in most other physicists.

See analytic, con-, instant, magnitude, number, stop, and Zeno. See Dirac's The Principles of Quantum Mechanics. Dirac also has this to say about 'state.'

"A state of a system may be defined as an undisturbed motion that is restricted by as many conditions or data as are theoretically possible without mutual interference or contradiction." Ibid.

In quantum reality, it is impossible for any system to be 'undisturbed.' All quantum systems are n¤nlisr. Reality disturbs itself endlessly because quantum reality changæs all of itself and always changes itself as an endless coobsfective-self-aware-self-referent EIMA ensehmble pr¤cess. That is why we say any classical notion of stable 'state' or stable state-ic motion is ludicrously naïve. Dirac's motion assumes unitemporal linear but stoppable motion of independent objects. But quantum reality is n¤t classically objective, n¤r unitemporal n¤r analytically stoppable. Further, contradiction may n¤t be assessed in quantum reality. Why? Classical contradiction depends upon objective negation. In quantum reality negation is subjective. See Aristotle. See negation. See negation is subjective. See subjectiv. See subjective. See contradict. See Zeno.

Quantum reality insists that measurement ¤f reality must be dynamic, because quantum reality is a n¤nstatic evolving pr¤cess, s¤ when we measure quantum reality we must bec¤me c¤herent with its dynamis t¤ d¤ s¤, rather than classically assuming we can make reality temporarily static while we classically measure it. (See some relevant commentary on classical vis-à-vis quantum measurement.)

'subject'

Etymology (From Barnhart's The Concise Dictionary of Etymology, p. 771, by Robert K. Barnhart, Harper Collins, 1995.):

"subject II. Before 1333 sugge person under the rule of another, subordinate; later subgit (about 1380), subiecte (before 1398); borrowed from old French suget, subgect, later subject a subject person or thing, representing various stages of borrowing from Latin subjectus noun use of the past participle of subicere to place under (sub- under + -icere, combining form of jacere to throw).

"Some of the specific senses as in logic and philosophy, are early borrowings in Middle English from Latin subjectum foundation or subject of a proposition, from neuter of subjectus, past participle, and eventually this spelling replaced the Middle English spelling from French in all uses. The Latin is a loan translation of Greek to hypokeimenon, literally, that which lies beneath.

"-adj. Before 1338 suget owing allegiance or obedience (to); later subgit (before 1393), and subject (about 1386); borrowed from Old French suget, subgiet, subject, from Latin subjectus inferior in status, subject, from past participle of subicere to place under. The meaning of prone (to), likely to have, is first recorded in Middle English about 1380.

"-v. before 1382 subjecten to subjugate; borrowed from Old French subjecter to subject, subjugate, from Latin subjectare throw under, subjugate, frequentative form of subicere to place under. The meaning of expose, lay open (to), is first recorded in 1549.

"-subjection n. About 1375 subieccioun dominion, control, domination; borrowed from Old French subjection from Latin subjectionem (nominative subjectio) a placing under, reducing to obedience. from subject-. past participle stem of subicere to place under; for suffix see ­TION.

"-subjective adj. Probably before 1450 subiective submissive, obedient; borrowed from Latin subjectivus. from subjectus subject, n.; for suffix see -IVE. The meaning of existing in the mind is first recorded in English in 1707,"

Synonyms - classical:

Classically 'subject' is below and after object. See our Pirsig relevant comments there.

To any classicist, objective thought rules any subjective notions. (Our best recent (2005) exemplar is Patrick Fitzgerald's indictment of I.L. Libby. Fitzgerald used dialectical objectivity to indict.)

'Subject' as may be seen from etymology to left, is a pure dialectical 'form.' It is ideally and materially 'oppositive' classical notions of 'object.' See our SOM Valuation of subject.

Greeks used dialectical notions and nounesque objective maltuitions to separate and hierarchically order object above subject. This hierarchy and scission are just and plainly wr¤ng. Wr¤ng especially from any quantum reality perspective.

Greeks, et al., constructed bogus SOMitic rules for judgment. CTMs find their bases in those bogus rules.

Etymologically, as you can read just left, classical subject is dungeonesque! From any classical conspective 'subject' is below and subservient 'object.' Quantum reality changes all that classical locus-hocus-bogus! Quantum reality inverts that classical hierarchy! Quantum reality takes us from CTMs to QTMs. Quantum reality stomps and subsumes classical dialectic and classical bases of judgment. Where CTMs subjugate and suborn (i.e., from a quantum~perspective CTMs commit perjury; SOMites and CRites endlessly and 'certainly' suborn via their inured practice of CTMs), QTMs set us free, literally and actually, through their fluxio adherences to quantum uncertainty. Classical dialectic perjures quantum~reality.

Quantumly subjective apparencies are Value~evolutionarily above objective apparencies.

Quantumly 'subject' and 'object' are quantum~complements, e.g., quanton(subjective_wave,objective_particle).

We use quantonics' scripts to show quantum complementarity of subject and object like this: quanton(subject,object).

Classical assess: stability independence excluded-middle EOOOness H5Wness lisrability causation certainty EEMDivity observation : Subjectiv, subjectivist, subjectivity

Technically this spelling of subjectiv is unique to non personal subjectivity. Subjectiv is about ensemble stochastics of events. We are talking classical probability here. Bruno de Finetti says it like this, classical probability is a "theory of additive and non negative functions of events." Quote taken from his paper, Foresight: Its Logical Laws, Its Subjective Sources, Translated by Henry E. Kyburg, Jr., and published in Studies in Subjective Probability, Wiley, 1964, from a series of lectures given by de Finetti in May, 1935, subsequently published in Annales de l'Institut Henri Poincaré,1937.

Allow Doug to make this overly simple using linguistics:

• Subjectiv - objective subjectivity, vav (subjectiv as formal, mechanical, canonic, fixed, stable, stopped, independent, etc.)
• Subjective - subjective subjectivity. (subjective as hermeneutic by sentient interpretation, heuristic, and conjecture...)

Latter is closer to our quantum English Language remediation: subjæctihvæ. Former is ideally dialectical, analytic, Platonic, Aristotelian, Parmenidian: classically 'defined' so well as to have but a 'single' interpretation. Under those conditions said interpretation is always two-valued, either subjectiv 'or' 'not' subjectiv. EOOO(subjective, not_subjectiv). Dichon(subjective, not_subjectiv). Hermeneutic subjectivity by comparison is classically 'sophist.' For quantonics, latter is always quantum real: BAWAM(subjective,only_apparently_classically_subjectiv), quanton(subjective,only_apparently_classically_subjectiv).

Doug - 19Feb2008.

Classicists at that time saw personal subjectivity as a dichon(external, internal). They assumed an Aristotelian excluded-middle.

Most of them saw probability as classically objective (in terms of probabilities' mechanical mathematics, e.g., "theory of additive and non negative..." used above; 'additive' assumes an Aristotelian excluded-middle, and 'not' presumes ideal objective negation, both based on two classical delusions of 'real' stability ("'reality' conventionally and conveniently holds still") and objective independence), where de Finetti and others saw a strange kind of objective subjectivity in probability (i.e., cultural, individually relative conspectives: see our Quantonics' HotMeme^TM of Thomas Kuhn on Immutability and Solipsism). Of course, this makes us think of Dr. Stein's Chautauqua from object to quantum object in his The Concept of Object as the Foundation of Physics. What we see here is an intellectual journey using classical CTMs plus intuitive imagination to gradually dénouer nature's quantum dénouements. Re~cognize how this is an apparent proto~quantum Chautauqua away from classically ideal ESQ toward more quantum memeotic DQ!

Subjectiv events, classically are independent, stable, state-ic, stoppable, analytic, lisr, etc. Viz. a flipped coin. Assume a zero momentum unidirectionally observable reference frame. Assume two ideal classical analytic hold-still states: either heads or tails. EOOO(heads, tails). Viz. an archer and 100 arrows shot. Viz. an ideally analytic target whose 'hits' may be objectively measured precisely and scalar magnitudinal unambiguously. All, just CTM axioms, doctrine, dogma... Viz. Challenger and Columbia spacecraft. Booster O-rings as stable, independent classical objects. Temperature as scalar magnitudinally unambiguous in relation to countless other classically state-ic, independent, objective 'variables.' Ice formation and shedding as classically analytic... Determinate, 1-1 correspondent, cause-effect...improbable. Viz. 100 geographically and contextually disparate courtrooms deciding guilty, innocent, hung on one 'same' set of ideal classically identical objective unit-case parameters.

This classical version of subjectiv suffers most of CTMs' ills. Notice de Finetti's use of 'event' as lisr, stoppable, stable, state-ic, etc.

De Finetti exposes another classical illness regarding subjectiv probability: it should only be viewed as theoretically objective and scientific. He implies there are two points of view:

1. subjectiv: "...the most commonly accepted, considers the subjective element of the naïve notion of probability which is found in everyday life as a dangerous element which ought to be eliminated in order that the notion of probability be able to attain a truly scientific (read CTM) status;
2. subjective: "...the opposite point of view considers, on the contrary, that the subjective elements are essential, and cannot be eliminated without depriving the notion and theory of probability of all reason for existing." Our parentheses. (Note abundant QELP in de Finetti's language.)

Philosophically, de Finetti continues, "...according to one, probability is an element which partakes of the physical world and exists outside us; according to the other, it only expresses the opinion of an individual and cannot have meaning except in relation to him." I.e., solipsism! Here we see a deluded Aristotelian innate classical assumption that humankind are objectively lisr from physical reality, indeed, human mind is lisr fr
